The Problem

Strong Fraud Measures at Start-up

Neo Financial had yet to “open the doors” when they decided to engage with Fraud.net. Powerful fraud prevention measures were a high priority for the company. They sought a partner that could:

  1. Provide leading fraud tools, and support a frictionless banking experience
  2. Quickly scale as they grow
  3. Adapt to meet their changing requirements as the portfolio expanded 
  4. Support a pre-authorization model for fraud prevention

Neo Financial’s biggest challenge was also one of their opportunities, developing fraud rules and policies without any history of customer behaviors. Additionally, they recognized the challenge and precision required in placing fraud rules upfront and the potential to negatively impact the customer experience.

The Solution

Designed for Frictionless Banking, Flexibility, and Speed

Fraud.net’s platform provides the foundation to deliver Neo Financial the rules, tools, and frictionless financial experience they require. Starting in the spring of 2020, when they launched, our solution has supported their mobile application and existing products. We also designed it with the flexibility to support planned future products. 

Our Transaction AI product provides Neo Financial the agility to utilize pre-authorization standard rules, plus develop custom rules. This includes the development of higher-level velocity-focused rules for card-present transactions. 

Additional elements include analytics, reporting, and a case management portal. Lastly, our solution meets Canadian data privacy and other regulatory requirements.
